Should I use big words, or just the simplest so I can cut to the chase?

Use simple words while being concise. Some longer words are allowed if they convey the meaning better then a generic short word.

I adjust my manner of speech to best match the intellect to whom a I am speaking too. In a less formal setting or when im around normies like to punctuate my sentences with words "man" and "like" quite a bit as it disarms people. When I am with smarter people who I have no informal bonds with, I tend to speak concisely and eloquently, using pithy words but never being overly verbose as that tends to quite plaguy. When im around people far more intelligent than I, I simply don't talk and mostly listen...

If you're just trying to teach people you want to be as efficient as possible. If you're trying to promote your work you need some degree of storytelling ability (spark interest, maintain attention, maintain logical flow).

But the real answer is to communicate in nothing but grunts and physical violence.

Your autism is showing. The point is to convey your idea without distracting language -- not to use the fewest words required to express an idea. Word choice gives flavor to text, and writing in an overly concise way makes you look autistic and/or Asian.
